The Philosophy Of Better Living

There are eight facts of life that affect you in various ways throughout life. These facts help create a better philosophy of living and help ground you in fundamental truths that sustain and strengthen you in life. Just understand that whatever happens with these eight is determined by what you do with the life God has given you.

You'll have to face many things on this journey, but you can choose to be bitter or better. Remember these thoughts every step of the way, especially on the days when things are tough.

-People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered; but forgive them anyway.

-If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; but be kind anyway.

-If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; but succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; but be honest and frank anyway.

-What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; but build anyway.

-If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous;
but be happy anyway.

-The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; but do good anyway.

-Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; but give the world the best you've got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God;
It never was between you and them anyway.
